Not true!
H2O2 has no ill effects on the plant clear up through harvest. You know not what you speak. Please try not to confuse people with bad info. You will only need to resupply your H2O2 when you top-up or every 3-4 days. Whatever comes first. This will keep your grow pathogen free and growing happy.

Pathogen free, yes. But it also kills the beneficial bacteria that are in the medium. If you don't go organic, or soil, then don't worry about it. For me though, I'm not killing those awesome little bacteria in there. Those things rock. And they are very expensive to replace.

H2O2 kills all bacteria, whether it be bad or good. You don't want to kill all of the beneficial bacteria, that stuff is good for you plants and is why they sell it as additives for soil or hydro.Not true!
If you want something to keep the root rot at bay without killing the beneficial stuff, use something like SubCulture from GH. A lot of people have tried it, and it is awesome stuff. This stuff will kill the bad bacteria by colonizing the good bacteria that "eat" the bad stuff.
If you feel like killing all the beneficial bacteria in your grow, thats fine. But please don't tell people they are wrong when YOU have no idea what you are talking about.

There are no beneficial bacteria in chemical nutes or inert grow media. If you are organic (and I am not sure why you would with hydro) then my all means find another pathogen control because H2O2 will kill you sauce but if you are using chem nutes nothing works better that H2O2 to keep thing clean.

If you are using chemical nutes use H2O2. If using organic find something else.

Lots of people use organic nutes in hydro and lots of people add things like Pirahna, or however its spelled, and other beneficial baceria to there res.

Have you ever smoked a chem hydro joint, then a organic hydro joint side by side? The reason why someone would want to grow organic hydro is simple, better quality.

Bong and Special - To each their own but I am of the school of thought that most people over-emphasize the better taste of organic over chem. Saying that the "quality" is better is subjective. I judge quality by thc content and yield. The growth process is just another chemical reaction and the plant only takes up whatever nutes it needs to grow. NPK and SMALL amounts of other trace minerals. No matter what is in the medium. I know others will disagree but science is science.
Most people over-nute in hydro grows. That will make a big difference if not flushed properly. There is a bell curve to weed nutes. Too little, enough and dead. Most people try to push and get a higher PPM but all that does is increase salts that must be flushed at the end. Read my idol Al B F's sticky threads for a better explanation.

400w/HPS just some bag seeds for this first grow. We are thinking about doing a Mango next and maybe cross it with a lowryder2. We are in week 4 of flowering. Comments are appreciated.

many thanks!! shes a little fried because im testing humbolts gravity right now and i went a bit too heavy with it. im happy with the results, i just need to use less next time. next batch of results will be in my journal in about 5 wks or so. harvest info in 3 wks. ive gotten just shy of a QP with this rig before on a single plant. i only ever have one plant ready at a time, i do a low number perpetual with harvests about 5-6 wks apart.

sounds interesting. what type of set up do you have?
